SUBJECT: NORTH ANNA - INFORMATION REQUEST FOR THE CYBER-SECURITY
BASELINE SECURITY INSPECTION, NOTIFICATION TO PERFORM
INSPECTION 05000338/2023403 and 05000339/2023403
Dear Mr. Stoddard:
On April 10, 2023, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a baseline
inspection in accordance with Inspection Procedure (IP) 71130.10 Cyber-Security, Revision 0
at North Anna. The inspection will be performed to evaluate and verify your ability to provide
assurance that your digital computer and communication systems and networks associated with
safety, security, or emergency preparedness (SSEP) functions are adequately protected against
cyber-attacks in accordance with the requirements of Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR), Part 73, Section 54, and the NRC approved Cyber Security Plan (CSP). The onsite
portion of the inspection will take place during the week of April 10, 2023.
Experience has shown that baseline inspections are extremely resource intensive, both for the
NRC inspectors and the licensee staff. To minimize the inspection impact on the site and to
ensure a productive inspection for both parties, we have enclosed a request for documents
needed for the inspection. These documents have been divided into four groups.
The first group specifies information necessary to assist the inspection team in choosing the
focus areas (i.e., sample set) to be inspected by the cyber-security IP. This information should
be made available electronically no later than February 13, 2023. The inspection team will
review this information and, by February 27, 2023, will request specific items that should be
provided for review.
The second group of requested documents will assist the inspection team in the evaluation of
the critical systems and critical digital assets (CSs/CDAs), defensive architecture, and the areas
of the licensees CSP selected for the cyber-security inspection. This information will be
requested for regional office review prior to the inspection by March 13, 2023, as identified
above.January 13, 2023
D. Stoddard 2
The third group of requested documents consists of those items that the inspection team will
review, or need access to, during the inspection. Please have this information available by the
first day of the onsite inspection, April 10, 2023.
The fourth group of information is necessary to aid the inspection team in tracking issues identified
as a result of the inspection. It is requested that this information be provided to the lead inspector
as the information is generated during the inspection. It is important that all of these documents
are up to date and complete in order to minimize the number of additional documents requested
during the preparation and/or the onsite portions of the inspection.
The lead inspector for this inspection is Ellery Coffman. We understand that our regulatory
contact for this inspection is Charlene Chotalal of your organization. If there are any questions
about the inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector at
404-997-4633 or via e-mail at Ellery.Coffman@nrc.gov.
This letter does not contain new or amended information collection requirements subject to the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Existing information collection
requirements were approved by the Office of Management and Budget, control number 3150-
0011. The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a
request for information or an information collection requirement unless the requesting document
displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget control number.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding,
of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available
electronically for public inspection in the NRCs Public Document Room or from the Publicly
Available Records (PARS) component of the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and
Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at
http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
Sincerely,
James Baptist, Chief
Engineering Branch 2

I. Information Requested for In-Office Preparation
The initial request for information (i.e., first RFI) concentrates on providing the inspection
team with the general information necessary to select appropriate components and CSP
elements to develop a site-specific inspection plan. The first RFI is used to identify the
list of critical systems and critical digital assets (CSs/CDAs) plus operational and
management (O&M) security control portions of the CSP to be chosen as the sample
set required to be inspected by the cyber-security IP. The first RFIs requested
information is specified below in Table RFI #1. The Table RFI #1 information is
requested to be provided to the regional office by February 13, 2023, or sooner, to
facilitate the selection of the specific items that will be reviewed during the onsite
inspection weeks.
The inspection team will examine the returned documentation from the first RFI and
identify/select specific systems and equipment (e.g., CSs/CDAs) to provide a more
focused follow-up request to develop the second RFI. The inspection team will submit
the specific systems and equipment list to your staff by February 27, 2023, which will
identify the specific systems and equipment that will be utilized to evaluate the
CSs/CDAs, defensive architecture, and the areas of the licensees CSP selected for the
cyber-security inspection. We request that the additional information provided from the
second RFI be made available to the regional office prior to the inspection by March 13,
2023.
